We are always on the lookout on ways that we can improve men’s health in Canterbury.

So far, our successes include:

• Involved in the group working with Damien O’Connor to establish the MoH’s recent men’s health initiatives ($2.5 M annual budget)
• Men’s Health Week June 2008: focussed on the community and health worker sector we had 11 events with approx 200 attendees
• CDHB’s consumer representative panel: Our Manager, Donald Pettitt, is on the panel (for the men’s sector)
• Partnership Health Canterbury Board: Our Manager, Donald Pettitt, is a community group representative

If you are a person wanting to make a difference to Cant’y men’s health then please contact Donald to talk about it.
